The Difficulty of Processing...

Ive reached the part of the trip where the long-term and the short-term natures are coming into conflict. Im realizing what is sustainable for a few weeks isnt really healthy for a long-term situation.

I had a feeling this would happen and it just means I have to be extra careful to create space for myself and keep things mixed up. Increasingly, Im finding myself 'full' but without much opportunity to really release and refresh... my usual practices are not working in the same way they did in the States, especially since my lifestyle isnt the same! All to be expected and not killer... just what Im realizing and recognizing these last days.

So, I have a feeling I'll be doing a lot of processing when I get home...

yeah, let it go--don't miss out on more experiences brooding over the previous ones. that's my two cents.

and angela reminded me, you need to go to this pumpkin restaurant in trestevere. i don't remember what it is called, but i'm sure there is only one pumpkin restaurant there. the italian word for pumpkin is zucca, which i think is in the title. anyway, random suggestion. i hope you're doing well man. i'm thinking and praying for you.
